Chapter 70: The Shared Dormitories

Chapter 70: The Shared Dormitories

Du Yue felt that since the base had already predicted the extreme cold, they would definitely have the corresponding countermeasures. The extremely cold weather descended upon them a few days ago, so why hadn’t there been any news yet?

“There is, indeed.” He Xing nodded. “The dormitories in the base are equipped with heaters. Those who can’t keep warm can go there, but they have to pay contribution points. If you don’t have any contribution points, you’ll have to work for the base, just like the others.”

“What if you don’t go to the shared dormitories?”

“If you don’t want to go there, you can only find a way to survive on your own. The base does sell fuel, but the price is very high.” Du Yue was not surprised to hear He Xing’s explanation.

The first base occupied a huge area and had a large population. It was simply a fantasy to take care of everyone and install a heater in every house. Therefore, they could only choose to gather everyone together and install heating in shared places. It would be good if people were willing to go there, but if not, they would have to find a way to survive themselves. In this way, everyone could choose according to their own needs, and the base would not be under so much pressure.

After Du Yue got the answer, she bade He Xing farewell. “It’s already very late. Go back and sleep. Goodbye.”

“Mhm, you should sleep early too!” The two of them went their separate ways and went home. Neither of them asked the other if they wanted to move into the dormitories. Both of them knew that the other party would not move in.

The thermal underwear given by He Xing was several times more effective than ordinary thermal underwear. After wearing that and putting on a few more clothes, Du Yue only felt slightly cold even after staying outside for so long at -40 to -50 degrees Celsius. She could still move freely.

After returning to the bedroom, the room was very warm with the help of the few heating devices. She quickly recovered. Du Yue took off her coat and hung it on the clothes rack by the door. She changed into a comfortable and warm set of pajamas. Du Yue’s last bit of sleepiness had dissipated after being tormented by the cold for so long, so she did not go back to bed immediately.

Anyway, she did not have anything important to do, so it would not be a problem for her to catch up on sleep during the day. Du Yue walked to the side and sat on the carpet. She leaned her entire body against a furry teddy bear that was taller than her.

In her previous life, Du Yue had lived in a dormitory in those small bases. At that time, Du Yue’s ability and situation were completely different from now. She could not survive in the cold weather by herself, so she had to live in a dormitory on a base.

It was called a dormitory, but it was actually a slightly larger house filled with simple beds. The distance between the beds was only wide enough for a thin woman to walk sideways. When she turned her head in her sleep, she could feel the breathing of the person next to her. Those small bases did not have the supplies and conditions that the first base had. They did not have heating systems, so they could only put a few big iron buckets in houses and burn firewood in them to keep people warm.

It was not a very big house, but more than a hundred people were squeezed inside. They made use of the big population to keep the dormitory warm. However, there were too many people living in the house, and the place was not well-ventilated, so the smell in the house was very overwhelming. Du Yue did not know what the dormitories in the first base were like. However, as long as there were a lot of people living inside, there would not be too much of a difference.

Du Yue lay down and thought for a long time. She only got up to start training when the sky outside gradually brightened. Even though the weather was cold and most people were too lazy to move, Du Yue still persisted in her daily training.

Regardless of the situation, a strong body and superior physical fitness were the foundation of survival.

The bedroom was relatively small, so every time Du Yue trained, she had to put away the carpet and bed and bring out the training equipment.

Three hours passed in the blink of an eye. After training, Du Yue was already covered in a thin layer of sweat. The temperature in the room was around 15 or 16 degrees. It was still a little cold to take a bath. however, Du Yue had a plan in mind. When she was stocking up, she had thought that it might be inconvenient to take a bath in extremely cold weather, so she had specially bought an outdoor bath tent.

Although this type of tent was not big, it was more than enough to put in a bath barrel. Du Yue took out the tent and the bathtub then walked in and closed the door.

Ever since she came to the first base, the bathwater that Du Yue had saved up in her house had become useful. She used it to flush the toilet. Every time the bathtub was used, she would re-boil the water and put it in the tub for use in extremely cold weather.
